examination would reveal most horri-
BILE state of affairs which l will explain
hereafter"
ga lady in apparently good health,
who rarely complained and then only
occasionally, of some slight and tran
sient ill-feeling, as nearly every one
does at some time or other, took long
walk with her husband, and upon re-
turning home, feeling particularly we'll,
went to her room to remove her bonnet,
and, while standing in front of the
mirror, fell to the floor in convulsion,
followed by twenty-four hours OF I'm
consciousness and death without a re-
turn to consciousness. A post-mortem
examination revealed the true cause in
a most horrible FORM"
ga young married man for years suf
fered from dyspepsia, for which he con-
suited many physicians. After suffer
ing in this way, and having no other
symptoms of disease, he awoke one
morning to find a very slight swelling,
scarcely more than puffiness under one
eye. In less than month he was dead.
Now the real and terrible cause OF all
these deaths was Bright's disease OF the
kidneys, and they might all have been
avoided had the unfortunate victims
known what a horrible malady was
fastened upon them. But Bright's dis
ease has no symptoms of its own. 1t
steals into the system like thief, and
deceives its victim by showing the symp-
toms of nearly every other disease.
But what can be done?
Take it in time.
If you feel unaccountably tired; il
you have peculiar pressing pains; il
your appetite is uncertain; if your head
aches occasionally; if your sleep is ir-
regular; if the fluids passed are profuse
or scanty, do not delay, but use the
best known means for escaping agony

A Good Man for a Commissioner

Capt. W. G. Raoulis an applicant for one
OF the Interstate Commerce Commission
erships. 1t is doubtful il there is a man
VINO knows Capt. Raoul who does not
wish him success.
There are several reasons why he would
make a irst.class Commissioner. He Is
well qualified to administer the inter-
state commerce law. He understands
the management of railroads thoroughly,
having had an experience Of eighteen
years with them. He has been at the
head of the greatest railroad system in
the South, and his management was
greatly.to his credit.
He understands thoroughly the kind of
problems which will be presented to the
Railroad Commission, and he has the
ability, patience and judgment to solve
them satisfactorily. He is not politi-
cisn, and that is greatly in his favor. He
would attend strictly to his duties, and
would not devote themost of his time try
ing to elect Congressman, Judges, Sena-
tors and President.
In railroad circles Capt. Raoul has a
national reputation. Nevertheless, the
President may not have heard Of him, be-
cause he 10 not great after-dinner orator
like Chauncey NJ. Depew, President OF the
New York Central, nor a great society
man like President Garrett, of the Balti-
more and Ohio. He is a plain, square
man, like the President himself, who
places duty before pleasure.
The South is certain TO have a repre-
sentstion upon the Commission, and it
could not do wiser thing than ask for
Capt. Raoups appointment. A request
from the solid South could not well be iS-
nored.
